passed from runner to runner. The Olympic Games were thought to be so important that cities which were at war with one another had to stop fighting. People were allowed to travel to the games safely.

A
Michael Jackson,the American pop legend,died of cardiac arrest (心搏骤停) in a Los Angeles hospital last night,just weeks from starting what he hoped would be a comeback—a series of sold-out shows in London.The pop superstar was taken to the University of California medical centre in Los Angeles last night,and doctors tried resuscitation (心肺复苏术) in the ambulance.He did not regain consciousness and was reported dead about three hours later.
“My brother,the legendary King of Pop,passed away on Thursday 25 June at 2∶26 p.m.,” his brother Jermaine said.“We believe he suffered a cardiac arrest at his home;however,the cause of his death is unknown until the results of the autopsy (验尸) are known.The personal physician who was with him at the time attempted to resuscitate him.”
A spokesman for the UCLA medical centre said,“When he arrived at hospital at approximately 1∶14 p.m. a team of doctors attempted to resuscitate him for a period of more than one hour;they were unsuccessful.” Police said they were investigating,which is standard procedure in such cases.
Jackson’s death brought a tragic end to a long decline from his peak in the 1980s when he was music’s greatest allaround performer,a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV.His 1982 album Thriller,which included the blockbuster hits Beat It,Billie.Jean and Thriller,is still the best-selling album of all time,with an estimated 50 million copies sold worldwide.
The world-famous entertainer had planned a series of 50 concerts in the O2 arena in London beginning on 12 July.Although in the last two decades his reputation was ruined by charges of child molestation (骚扰) and his strange public behaviour,1 million tickets were sold within hours,proving the King of Pop had enduring appeal.
56.Where did Michael Jackson die?
A.At his home in Los Angeles.
B.In a Los Angeles hospital.
C.On the stage in London.
D.In an ambulance to hospital.
57.Why are the police involved in investigating the death of Michael Jackson?
A.Because they believed he was murdered.
B.Because it is standard procedure in such cases.
C.Because Michael Jackson was a famous singer.
D.Because his relatives insisted on knowing the truth of his death.
58.The underlined word “shattered” in Para.4 can be replaced by“________”.
A.jumped B.limited C.broke D.avoided
59.It can be inferred that Michael Jackson was________.
A.a King of Pop with good health
B.a King of Pop and behaved gently
C.still performing on the stage before his death
D.still popular in spite of his bad reputation
60.What’s the main idea of this passage?
A.Michael Jackson dies of cardiac arrest.
B.Michael Jackson was the legendary King of Pop.
C.Michael Jackson’s death is still under investigation.
D.People all over the world cry for Michael Jackson.

Black-footed ferrets (雪貂) used to be in big trouble.The creatures are North America’s only native ferret species.By the late 1970s,scientists thought that black-footed ferrets had become extinct in the wild.
Over the years,the number of ferrets has mirrored the number of prairie dogs (草原犬鼠) in the area.Prairie dogs make up 90 percent of what ferrets eat.Farmers have long viewed prairie dogs as pests,and used to kill them.At the same time,diseases swept through the prairie dog community and wiped out many of them.
As their food supply declined,ferret populations suffered as well.In the 1970s,scientists tried to raise ferrets and introduce them into the wild after they grew up.Their efforts failed,and biologists thought that the animals had become extinct.
Then,in 1981,a farmer’s dog discovered blackfooted ferrets near Meatiest,a town in northwest Wyoming.State wildlife managers trapped as many of the animals as they could.In total,they caught 18.Scientists from the Smithsonian Institution’s National Zoological Park in Washington,DC then attempted to feed these survivors.
The researchers eventually managed to feed seven ferrets.Over many generations,the group and its offspring (后代) have successfully produced more than 4,800 animals.Since then,biologists have introduced ferrets that were raised by people in 12 other places.At least two thirds of these populations seem to be doing well.To know for sure if the reintroductions are working,scientists will have to carefully study the animals and their progress.
61.The black-footed ferrets were once near extinction because______.
A.a disease swept through the ferrets
B.the number of prairie dogs declined
C.most of them had been killed by hunters
D.they couldn’t adapt to the wild
62.In the 1970s,scientists tried to________.
A.feed as many prairie dogs as possible for black-footed ferrets to eat
B.persuade the public to keep black-footed ferrets in their own houses
C.kill prairie dogs to keep the balance of nature
D.introduce black-footed ferrets into the wild
63.We can infer from the passage that________.
A.the population of black-footed ferrets will increase
B.scientists will fail to save the black-footed ferrets
C.more black-footed ferrets will be caught and raised by people
D.scientists are sure that the reintroductions are working well
64.What do scientists have to do if they want to know whether the reintroductions are working?
A.They have to raise more black-footed ferrets.
B.They have to ask biologists for help.
C.They have to study the black-footed ferrets and their progress.
D.They have to introduce black-footed ferrets to some more places.
65.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.Black-footed ferrets are in danger of dying out.
B.How to prevent black-footed ferrets from disappearing.
C.What local people have done to protect the black-footed ferrets.
D.Scientists are trying to raise the number of black-footed ferrets.
C
Most children,even the youngest of children,are delighted to be around cats and dogs.But these pets carry plenty of germs and allergens (过敏原),prompting researchers to ask:Are cats and dogs really safe for children?
A study finds that,contrary to many parents’ fea rs,owning cats or dogs does not increase a child’s risk of developing allergies,and in fact,may actually protect them.The study’s lead author,Dr.Dennis Ownby of the Medical College of Georgia,said that even he was “very surprised” by the results.Ownby and colleagues followed more than 470 children from birth to age 6 or 7,comparing those exposed to cats and dogs during their first years of life to those who were not.
By using skin-prick tests for detecting common allergies,the researchers found that,contrary to what many doctors had been taught for years,children who had lived with a pet were not at greater risk.
Even more remarkable,children who had two or more dogs or cats had an even greater reduction,up to 77 percent,in risk of allergies.Researchers suggest this protective effect may be the result of early exposure to lots of bacteria that are carried by dogs and cats.Exposing young children to these bacteria helps “exercise” their immune systems early in life so that they’re better able to resist allergic diseases later.
“There’ s something very important in the first years of life when the immune system is developing that we can retrain it away from an allergic response,” said Dr.William Davis.
And while researchers are not encouraging parents to buy dog s or cats just to reduce a child’s allergy risk,they say if a family already has one or more animals,there’s no need to get rid of them.
66.Why do the researchers feel “very surprised” by the results of the study?
A.Because the results are contrary to their expectation.
B.Because so many children are playing with cats and dogs.
C.Because parents are so much worried about their children.
D.Because children with animals may develop allergies easily.
67.Compared with children who have pets,those who haven’t______.
A.will lose the chance to develop immune system
B.may suffer allergic diseases more often
C.will reduce the harm from bacteria
D.can keep doctors away
68.It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A.pets are ill-treated by their owners
B.less families would like to own cats and dogs
C.keeping pets is a good way to keep children healthy
D.the results of the study can make families with pets feel at ease
69.The underlined word “it” in the fifth paragraph refers to______.
A.the early life B.an allergic disease
C.immune system D.something important
70.What may be the best title of the passage?
A.How to protect your kids from allergies
B.Your pets may be helping your kids
C.Bacteria do good to your kids
D.Advantages of owning pets
D
The global financial crisis is likely to cause increased mental health problems and even suicides (自杀) as people struggle to deal with poverty and unemployment,the World Health Organization warned on Thursday.
Hundreds of millions of people worldwide are already affected by mental problems such as depression and bipolar disorders and the current market meltdown (崩溃) could worsen feelings of despair among people who can’t stand such illnesses.
The United Nations agency said the impact could be especially marked for those living in low and middle income countries where access to treatment is often limited.
“We should not be surprised at the turbulence (动荡) and likely consequences of the current financial crisis.Now we are seeing a huge gap in taking care of people in great need,” WHO director-general Margaret Chan told at a meeting of mental health experts.
“It should not come as a surprise that we continue to see more stresses,suicides and mental disorders,” Chan warned.
Benedetto Saraceno,director of WHO’s mental health,said mental health disorders affected one in four people at some point in their lives.
Mental and neurological disorders are often chronic (慢性) and disabling,he said.Nearly 1 million people commit suicide worldwide every year,a large proportion (比例) of whom are young adults.
Asked about the financial crisis,Saraceno said,“Poverty can be the consequence of such events,the debts,despair and sense of loss that may reach middle and lower classes.Even the poor can be affected by this crisis.”
“There is a clear evi dence that suicide is linked to financial disasters.I am not talking about the millionaire’s jumping out of the window but about poor people,” he said.The global crisis could be expected to affect the “stability (稳定) of communities and families”,according to Saraceno.
71.According to the passage,the chief result of the worldwide financial crisis is that________.
A.more people will be poorer
B.more people will be out of jobs
C.more people will suffer from mental problems
D.more people will commit suicide
72.The United Nations agency worried that________.
A.more rich people would commit suicide
B.the financial crisis might especially influence developing or underdeveloped countries C.the current market meltdown could worsen feelings of despair
D.hundreds of millions of people in the world were already affected by mental problems 73.The underlined word “impact” in the third paragraph probably means________.
A.crisis B.disorder C.meltdown D.influence
74.It is implied that________.
A.far more work should be done to help those who are mentally ill
B.it will be surprising to see more people commit suicide
C.a mental disorder is a chronic disease
D.many more young adults commit suicide worldwide than people of other ages
75.The best title for the passage is ________.
A.Consequences of Global Financial Crisis
B.Mental Disorders Resulting from Global Financial Crisis
C.Suicides as a Result of Market Meltdown
D.Chronic Mental Disorders
